Kevin McCloud's Colour Cards

Following the phenomenal success of Choosing Colours, Kevin McClouds Colour Cards take the hard work out of decorating with four fabulously handy card packs each containing 24 cards that showcase a sublime colour palette, sourced by a renowned authority on colour with a brilliant visual eye. The four themed packs each take a different source for their inspiration. The Historical Colour Cards pack presents a selection of authentic, painstakingly researched palettes for period interiors ranging from the traditional, robust colours of eighteenth-century salons to the icy pale shades of the Art Deco era. The sea, sky and landscape of the natural world are the inspiration for the Natural Colour Cards pack with wonderful rich Mediterranean colours and the eerie spectrum of the Northern Lights. Drawing on today's love of all things vintage, the Retro Colour Cards present a palette of the last century of interiors taking in groovy fifties textiles, lithographic printing and vibrant sixties prints. Finally, the Modern Colour Cards are Kevin's choice of the best contemporary colours for a breathtaking twenty-first century look.
Superbly produced in six colours for astonishing accuracy, each pack provides a blueprint for a decorative scheme that can be easily transferred to any interior. Printed on each card to accompany the colour swatches, every palette is prefaced by a short text describing its origins potential and variety. Each swatch is also identified by its own paint reference from the international and specialist manufacturers enabling you to choose and source each palette with ease.
